Nature, the master engineer, is coming to our rescue again. Inspired by scorpions, scientists have created new pressure ...

Feedback from force/torque sensors (black cylinder mounted on arm end) gives robots the delicate touch needed for operations such as this camera function test. An industrial PC controls the robot ...

Scientists make non-toxic quantum dots for shortwave infrared image sensors SWIR sensors ideal for service robotics, automotive, consumer electronics sectors.

TouchTronix Robotics develops sensing technology for robotic hands, closing a $300,000 pre-seed round to enhance automation across industries.

Researchers have developed an L3 F-TOUCH sensor to enhance tactile capabilities in robots, allowing it to 'feel' objects and adjust its grip accordingly.

Building on a platform Meta developed to integrate sensors on a single robot hand, the upcoming Allegro Hand will feature control boards that encode data from the tactile sensors onto a host computer.

I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...

The sensor is lightweight, low-cost, and wireless, making it an affordable option for retrofitting existing robot hands and graspers. The human hand can sense pressure, temperature, texture, and pain.
